Day 14- Anime That Never Gets Old No Matter How Many Times You’ve Rewatched It
It’s on a very rare occasion that I will rewatch anime. If I’m obsessed enough with it then I’ll rewatch the whole anime or certain episodes a bunch until I calm down about it but in my normal routine I normally keep plowing forward with watching new and unfamiliar anime as it’s a fresh experience for me. Having said that there is one in particular that has never gotten old and that’s Space Dandy baby (I’m sorry but the baby is necessary when talking about this show).
I don’t think I have watch an anime as many times as I have with Space Dandy. I think I have seen this show at least 4 or 5 times. That doesn’t sound like a lot but I rarely rewatch entire series so that’s a big number for me. Dandy just doesn’t get old for me. The reason being is that overall there is no real cohesive story it jumps from one episode to the next and you roll with whatever is thrown at you. That makes it a fun and easy watch where I don’t have to pay much attention to the plot and I can just enjoy the insanity that is unfolding before me. I can even skip episodes because they don’t connect together so I can pick and choose between what I want to watch and not have to remember a plot line. It has a great cast of characters, stupid humour and a wide range of incredible stories which just brings me joy and makes me want to rewatch it over and over again.
Here we have some great random screenshots from some of my favourite episodes:

I really enjoyed this one and it is definitely an easy one to rewatch. It does a bit of everything too so that’s nice. Good pick 🙂

Any time! I think some people really undervalue how much that show tried so much out. The story is also pretty cohesive for having so many directors too.

Yeah it honestly irks me when I people say it didn’t do well because I think it’s a brilliantly done show and everything they tried worked so well! I wish it was more popular and yeah it really did! I also love how the animation changed each episode as it added something different to it all!

For sure. Watanabe shows are all pretty experimental and interesting if you ask me.

They are! I know it’s probably a super unpopular opinion but I stand by it none the less and that is Dandy is better than Bebop 😂 but I didn’t get along with Bebop much even though everyone else seems to love it! 😅

I think that most of his shows are strong 9’s or 10’s with very few exceptions. I loved Bebop but I wouldn’t compare that to Dandy personally. Totally different feeling shows.

I struggled with Bebop but I did enjoy Champloo and yeah I get what you mean. I think as everyone always raves about Bebop and I’m over here like I prefer Dandy in terms of his work but that’s just me 😆 plus I see an awful lot of fan art with Spike and Dandy together so many that’s where my comparison stemmed from
